Microglia RAGE exacerbates the progression of neurodegeneration within the SOD1 G93A murine model of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis in a sex-dependent manner
Abstract Background Burgeoning evidence highlights seminal roles for microglia in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).The receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) binds ligands relevant to ALS that accumulate in the diseased spinal cord and RAGE has been previously implicated in th
